three-point contact with the steps and handrails.
•
Do not use any controls as hand-holds.
•
Never jump on or off the machine. Never mount
or dismount a moving machine.

Be careful of slippery conditions on platforms,
steps, and handrails when mounting and dis-

ADJUST THE OPERATOR'S SEAT
•
A poorly adjusted seat for either the operator or for
the work at hand may quickly fatigue the operator
leading to misoperations.
•
The seat should be adjusted whenever changing
the operator for the machine.
•
The operator should be able to fully depress the
pedals and to correctly operate the control levers
with his back against the seat back.
•
If not, move the seat forward or backward, and
check again.
